COMBINATION SHIRT AND DRAWERS Application filed July 9, 1930. Serial No.466,800.

The present invention relates to improvethe neckband and extendsdownwardly to the ments in mens garments and has reference moreparticularly to a combination shirt and drawers.

The principal object of the present invention is to provide a garment ofthe above mentioned character which will combine, in a unitarystructure, an outer shirt as distinguished from an undershirt, and apair of drawers.

Another important object is to provide a combination shirt and drawersthat will afford maximum comfort to the wearer, the garment being ofsuch construction as to permit the same to be readily and easily put onor taken off.

A further object is to provide a combination shirt and drawers which issimple in construction, inexpensive, strong and durable and further welladapted to the purposes for which it is designed.

Other objects and advantages of the invention will -become apparent fromthe following description when taken in connection with the accompanyingdrawings.

In the accompanying drawings wherein like reference characters indicatecorresponding parts throughout the several views:

Figure 1 is a front elevation of the combination shirt and drawersembodying my invention. T

Figure 2 is a side elevation thereof.

Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary nerspective view of the drawersforming a. salient pa t of the present invention. and

Figure 4C is a vertical sectional vi w taken approximately on the line44 o Figure 1.

In the drawings. wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown thepreferredv embodiment of my invention, the numeral 1 designatesgenerally the outer shirt. the same including the front 2 and the back3, the back being connected to the front by the 4.5 usual side seams.The sleeves of the shirt are indicated at 4t and the neckband at 5.

The front 2 is open and the vertical opening is closed by the customarybuttons denoted by the numeral 6. It is to be understood that the frontopening commences at crotch portion 7.

The drawers portion of the garment is denoted generally by the numeral 8and the I fronts of the two legs of the drawers are}, indicated at 9,said frontal portions forming a continuation of the respective portionsof the front 2 of the shirt. Cooperating with the frontal portions 9 arethe rear leg portions 10, the rear leg portions forming a continuationof the back 3 of the shirt.

Laterally extending tabs 11 and 12 are as sociated with the interposededge portions. of the fronts 9 at the crotch portion 7 ,said tabs beingadapted for disposition in over lapping relation when in use. A button13 is attached to one tab while a button-hole 14 is formed in thecomplementary tab for re-- ceiving the button 13 to secure the tabs inoverlapping engagement for a purpose to be presently described.

The lower edge of the back portion of the drawers is cut to form asubstantially V and attached to the V-shaped edge portion is a strip offabric of thesame material as the shirt and drawers. This strip ofmaterial includes a central V-shaped tongue 14 and corner wings 15.

In Figure 3 of the drawings, there is clearly illustrated the manner inwhich the nortions of the material constituting the drawers are arrangedwhen the garment is worn and it will be observed that the tongue 14. isbrought underneath of the crotch portion of the garment and is adaptedto be attached S5 to the lowermost button of the row of but tons thatconnect the divided front portions of the shirt together, it being ofcourse understood that the tongue 14 is provided with.

a button hole such as is indicated at 16.

The free edge portions of the front sides of the legs of the drawerswill be disposed in overlapping relation with respect to the cornerwings 15 that form continuations of the inner side edges of the backportions of disposed across the tongue 14' and are connected together asindicated at Figures 1 and 4 so as to form the complete unitary garment.

A combination outer shirt and drawers of the above mentioned charactercan be readily and easily put on or taken off and will at the same time,not interfere with the ordinary movements of the body of the wearer.Furthermore, the construction of the drawers is such as to permit thesame to be easily operated for purposes of utility.

Although I show a shirt open at the front with collar attached andsleeves it is to be understood that I do not wish to limit myself to theconstruction as the invention is equally well applicable to a shirt withor without an opening: in the front, with or without attached collar andwith or without sleeves.

A garment of this character will be strone; and durable yet inexpensivein its manufacture.

lVhile I have shown the preferred embodiment of the invention. it is tobe understood that minor changes in the size, shape and arrangement ofparts may be resorted to without departing; from the spirit of the invention and the scope of the a nnended Clain'u'.
